Young scholars follow instructions on index card with a locomotor skill and pathway written on it, then students follow the cones which mark the boundaries. When music stops switch index cards with another student and go agian.

Pupils become aware of other people when moving in a small space.

Students play a game of tag using lines on the floor.

Students play a game in which they use scooter boards to impersonate hippos. They gather balls and place them into a bucket while remaining on the scooter boards.

Twelfth graders examine illustrations and animations on a Physlets CD in which they must describe motion, analyze graphs, and calculate initial velocity. The Physlet assists in providing active class participation in discussion.

Third graders are introduced to the correct mechanics of throwing. They work in peer groups to demonstrate proper throwing form and critique each other's performance.

Young scholars observe the behavior of different charged objects. In this science lesson, students perform a series of static electricity experiments. They discuss their observations in class.
